PS3's Sixaxis wants to be a 360 controller

by Dustin Burg { Apr 16th 2007 at 5:00PM }

That Ben Heck has used his evil genius to do it again, gutting an Xbox 360 controller and replacing its innards with ::shutter:: PS3 Sixaxis technology. Being commissioned to do so, Ben used his technology knowledge to put a functioning Sixaxis controller into a 360 controller shell. We definitely know there is some Xbox 360 controller envy coming from the PS3 fanboys, but why did you have to do this Ben? What have you done with our colorful buttons and you even replaced our spherical guide button with a ... Playstation logo. And is that a USB cable going to the back of it? Please, say it ain't so! It's a sad sight to see, but we know how hard it is for Playstation fans to use that dreadful Sixaxis controller. With heavy hearts, we'll share our controller ... but just this once.

Props for Ben Heck.

He's a real mastermind of technology. That's amazing, and yet weird.

He could've at least covered up that Shit logo on the center. Gotten a print out of the Xbox logo or something.

Still, props to ben once again,

LOL, such love on these fanboy sites. It's just to much.

wow this site is so biased and rude. On the PS3fanboy part of the site you don't see crap like this. They can report on it but they don't have to be rude. Jeez 360 Fanboys are so insecure about the possibility that the PS3 just might be better than their system so they have to bash the crap out of everything. One thing I noticed was that the 360fanboy wont say anything bad about the 360. NOTE the missing story on the 360 scratching disks.

camtheman, you gotta take it easy. Its not like they really mean all that stuff. way to blow up ya flip out. "so insecure about the fact that PS3 might be better than their system." you know it. Because we all just live and die with system sales numbers and statistics. you sir, are a flip out if I ever saw one.

One thing I noticed is how dumb that statement is, because I notice how ps3fanboy won't say anything bad about the ps3. NOTE The missing story about how some ps3 fanboys (cough*) give the real fanboys bad rep. Good job there jackass. It's called a fanboy site, if you posted bad stuff then it would be an EMO360fanboy site. We don't want EMO.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSHHHHH
That's the sound of a joke going over your head.

I would definitely go for a Mutation of the 360 and PS3 Controller!
360 Has better Trigger. The PS3 Trigger can get uncomfortable.
The PS3 is 1/4 the Weight.
The 360 has Rumble.
The PS3 has Sixaxis, it's pretty cool on some games.

The biggest Problem switching back and forth between 360 and PS3 games... The damn X Button. 360's is to the Left, PS3 is the Lower Center button. (Thats the A button for you Fanboys)
